C Agricultural Experiment Station Running- a business without records. it has beer. said, is like running a clock without hands. In either case the thing is running?but where and how ? Farm records. Greene pointed out. are a basis for an intelligent study of the business, they give the information necessary to make ar. accurate credit statement, they show the results of the year's work, they indicate weak spots which need improvement. Although records may be started at any time, it is usually more convenient to start them early in January. At this time feed and crop supplies are low and it is easy to take inventory. Also, most farmers are not as busy at this time as they are later or.. Greene suggested ! hat growers who are not already keeping records should plan nov/ to start then, the first of the year. X. G. State College ha3 designed a record book especially for the Xcrtb Carolina farmer, and it will be an aid to keeping" the proper kind of records, he added. \ Copk-s of the book may be secured j from the Department of Agricultural ; Economics, at St ate* College, by those ; persons keeping records as a demon| at ration with that department t.ounty a gen Is or high school agricultural teachers yrill be glad to assist farmers get their records start ! ed.
